Book deal - Gary McMahon & Solaris Books

I have fallen a bit behind with my reading lately, due to a few days of headaches that didn’t seem to stop. But today I feel better already and I think that I will be on my usual reading schedule again. But although I didn’t manage much reading these days I still finished Gary McMahon’s novella, “The Harm”, and I already sketched my review. And since I enjoyed a lot “The Harm” and I was talking about Gary McMahon’s career recently, I am happy to see that further news about his writing are revealed. I am also happy to see that Gary’s career is on a rise, with the publication of his novella, “The Harm”, at the World Horror Convention next week and with the book deal signed with Angry Robot Books I mentioned in my previous post, but also with the new deal, announced yesterday, signed with Solaris Books for a horror/urban-fantasy trilogy. As Solaris Books says it Gary's new series will be dark, gritty, intelligent, mysterious and moving and will start in 2011 with the novel “The Concrete Grove”.
